When I first “cracked the code” on stabilizing and reversing prolapse, and wrote and published Saving the Whole Woman, I set up this forum. While I had finally gotten my own severe uterine prolapse under control with the knowledge I had gained, I didn’t actually know if I could teach other women to do for themselves what I had done for my condition.
So I just started teaching women on this forum. Within weeks, the women started writing back, “It’s working! I can feel the difference!”
From that moment on, the forum became the hub of the Whole Woman Community. Unfortunately, spammers also discovered the forum, along with the thousands of women we had been helping. The level of spamming became so intolerable and time-consuming, we regretfully took the forum down.
Technology never sleeps, however, and we have better tools today for controlling spam than we did just a few years ago. So I am very excited and pleased to bring the forum back online.

Hi Catrina and welcome. What type(s) of prolapse do you have, and, have you had any other repair surgeries and/or hysterectomy? We could really use a little more information in order to point you in the right direction. Please postpone the surgery until you have had a look at the Whole Woman work. What procedure are you scheduled for? There is no surgical cure for prolapse, and the failure rate is quite high; but what we offer here is a solution that allows you to get on with life. There are thousands of us here who thank Christine every day for what we have learned here. - Surviving

Hi Surviving 60. I have had
Hi Surviving 60. I have had no surgeries or repairs. I was told I was not a good candidate for a pessary because of a total prolapse. It was suggested that I loose about 40 pounds, because it would take a lot of weight off the organs. I am having issues however, trying to loose the weight. I have fibromyalgia, and herniated discs. This alone makes it very hard to get any sort of exercise. Then when your organs are hanging out anyway, ( sorry to be so blunt but it is the truth ) the longer I am on my feet, the worse that problem is. I am calling today to cancel surgery for mesh. I am so interested in learning the correct posture and excercises.
Thanks very much

Hi catrina,
Hi catrina,
First, give a good read around this site about Christine's work. There is tons of material that will help familiarize you with what this work is all about, maintaining the correct posture that will help move your organs into the lower belly where they belong. Next, go to the whole woman store where you will find many products that will help you on your journey with whole woman.
The best start is the Saving the Whole Woman book and the First Aid For Prolapse DVD, but there are also bundles and online courses.
Have a good look around.

Catrina - the notion that excess weight aggravates prolapse is just another of many fallacies we hear all the time. In correct posture, with the organs held forward against the lower abdominal wall, a bit of extra weight-loading can actually help. I kid you not. You've done step 1 (cancelling the mesh) - you're off to a great start. We are here for you! - Surviving

thanks a bunch
Thank you both so very much for your encouraging words and help. I am now on a mission to come up with enough money to purchase the dvd and the book. I cannot wait to get started. I am excited to get this under control.

The H word
Check out the HERS foundation website and Nora Coffey. I bought her book THE H Word when a misguided doctor suggested hysterectomy for my fibroids. I was promised it would make me feel better. What a bunch of baloney! I receive more support and real information here. I'm 59 and have a cystocele, recotocel, fibroids and recurrent uti. You won't regret. Login to this forum.
